Re: Pearses in England

Have you researched the distant relatives like the Freshwaters, Banks and Caldwells?

I don't know if you are aware thatAmos and Eliza's daughtr Mary married a George Freshwater, and his brother William married Ruth Banks, their daughter Ivy married George Beresford Caldwell, and they had 3 daughters, Betty, Mavis and Nancy.Mavis married Frank Bridle and they had 2 daughters Lynette and Narelle,Lynette married my eldest brother Jimmy, meaning that through her the Freshwaters, Banks and Caldwells are linked to both sides of my family.I have spent a lot of the last 3 months since we became aware of this connection researching the Banks, Caldwells and Freshwaters.We were not aware of this connection, I just came across it by chance, and we (meaning my siblings and I) along with Lynette's daughters, were blown away by this revelation.Unfortunately Lynette died in 1994 and from what I can gather her sibling was not aware of the connection either.Most of my research last year prior to this was on the Gibbs side of the family and I had put the Pearses aside for a while.

I am again having to put my reseach to one side next week for a couple of months as i run a small business from home and am absolutely flat chat with scheduled work from the 3rd of January to end of March.

I am happy to give you what I have but it probably won't be until then as I have to give work my first priority, and I need to rescan my notes into my new computer following a computer crash last July.Anything I get scanned in I will get to you, but it will be in dribs and drabs, but I promise I will get it to you.
